While Xmas shopping, we discovered these Mini Lunch Notes.
My mother, who has been a teacher for a gazillion years, recommends that parents write notes to their kids to encourage them to read. Kids are super-motivated to read when it’s a message from their parents. I tend to write things like “Please bring home your water bottle. I love you!” Tom writes notes like, “Please don’t eat your socks today.”
I know, I know. I could just use a plain piece of paper, but Tom and I pack lunches in the wee hours, a time of day where finding paper and a pen a getting them to the same spot seems like a near impossible task. So I will happily give Chronicle Books $10 to save us from nearly three months of searching for paper at 6:30am.
